This is definately 100% true, and its not the first time its been done either. But with a little luck, the charges will be dropped on all the innocents. The same thing happened somewhere else in the country, and after a huge campaign by the ACLU, various other activist groups, and a petition from the public, they managed to get the charges dropped. I've already emailed the mayor of Flint, all the council members, and the sheriffs department to let them know its not cool.
